I think I’m over thinking the kid thing. I’m not going to include any of that in my cover letter and will just do a short blurb in the extra info section of the application.
You’re overthinking it. Unless your children are applying for visas as well, they are irrelevant to your application.
Just answer any questions the form ask you about them and leave it at that. I would not write anything in the Additional Information section.
One other question about the app. When asking for employment info is that my info? Seems strange they’d be asking for the applicants employment when it has no bearing but that’s how it reads - am I wrong?
It only asks about your employment because the online form is generic and pretty much the same for all visa types... therefore some of the questions may seem odd and not relevant to you.
Just answer them anyway, but be aware that you do not need to provide any evidence of your employment and that it cannot be considered for the application.
A couple of other tips:
- where it asks how long you intend to stay in the U.K., it’s fine to put Indefinitely or Permanently
- when it asks for details of parents, they mean YOUR parents (the applicant’s parents), even though it reads like they want the sponsor’s parents’ details. They ask to make sure you do not already have claim to U.K. citizenship through your parents.
